PHS gives many opportunities for students to shine. Whether it is being involved in clubs, sports, taking advanced classes at PHCC or AP classes. I believe that the professional faculty at Pasco High has helped me better myself for the future by providing me with a great education and support. I am glad they are becoming successful with academics and athletics.
Pasco High School provides a friendly atmosphere for learning. Students are provided with many learning opportunities. The school offers Honors, Advanced Placement and Dual Enrollment courses for students. Although the school is culturally diverse, the campus is well supervised and the students are disciplined.
Pasco High School overall will provide a good academic background if the student and/or parents are self motivators. The freshman and sophomore years are to easy, 'filled with fluff'. Even at the honors level some of the classes involve lots of busy work or art projects. Then the junior and senior level it is moved at such a high level it is difficult for many students to adjust after the two previous years. Dual enrollment and AP courses for the most part truly offer a challenge. The staff and administration are personable and friendly, but the curriculum needs to be more challenging from the very beginning.
Pasco High school is in a difficult position. It is the oldest school in the district and has an undeserved bad reputation. However, there are plenty of opportunities for students to excel if they choose to do so. Advanced Placement programs are very successful. In addition, the dual enrollment program with PHCC offers many options to ALL of the students, whether they want vocational training or want to try to graduate with their AA degree. Those students who are committed to receiving a good education will be happy here because they are responded to very well. There are many dedicated teachers and administrators who try their best to make the school successful.
